We are pleased to invite you to a round table discussion that will showcase three EU-Rail projects: DACCord, LEADER2030, and Academics4Rail.

The aim of exploratory projects within Europe’s Rail Joint Undertaking (ERJU) is to foster innovative, high-risk research and development activities that will shape the future of Europe’s railway systems. These initiatives are designed to explore cutting-edge technologies and concepts that, while not immediately implementable, hold great potential to transform the rail sector in the long run.

In this round table, you’ll hear directly from the project leaders of DACCord, Academics4Rail, and LEADER2030 on how these initiatives are advancing key ERJU objectives:

  • Innovative Concepts
  • Disruptive Technologies
  • Sustainability and Green Transport
  • Future-Proofing Rail Infrastructure
  • Cross-Sector Collaboration

 

Join us to discover how these projects are keeping Europe at the forefront of railway innovation, ensuring the rail sector is prepared for future mobility demands and sustainability challenges.

Don’t miss the opportunity to see how academic/exploratory research is being connected to industry needs!
